The Central Art Walk is a yearly studio tour and sale on the first weekend of October in the beautiful Kitchener neighbourhoods bounded by King, Victoria, Weber, and Union streets. Come visit, and get a chance to see artists in their own studios, displaying fine art, jewelry, paintings, food, photography, pottery, glass, collage and fibre arts.
This year you can join a Canvas Painting Event with Extend-A-Family Waterloo Region, at the WALES building. After the art walk these canvases will be hung up in WALES’ sensory break room – to make a community mural!
If you are interested in volunteering for the WALES event, contact Kate Short at EAFWR kate.short@eafwr.on.ca
